  • Simple, really. Abs(x-y) is the difference between the two numbers, absolute, so positive value. So, adding abs(x-y) to the smaller of the two numbers turns it into the bigger number. Plus the bigger number, now you have 2 times the bigger number

    If its a German degree - Germanistik is different from just German courses. It’s more about German literature - how the language evolved, why things are the way they are, analyzing uses of language and so on.

    Not really a useful degree, but a degree you need to put work in nonetheless



  • Thing is, yes. Yallo or wingo or all those providers are “cheaper”. But - for example in the case of yallo, you get double-natted - which means you could not really set up a home server accessible from the outside world even if you wanted to. Then, there’s also the support of wingo and yallo and so on which is… Terrible. I actually ordered yallo Internet at first because I got sold on it over the phone - the next day, before anything got shipped or anything, I wanted to annul my contract because, well, I found out about their shitty stuff. I was redirected like 8 Times across 8 levels of ‘support’ until I got it through.

    I went for init7. Day it was supposed to go up, it didn’t. Phone support was competent, said everything looked ok from their end. If I was sure the problem wasn’t on my end (router, settings, fiber), they could send a technician along the next day - but if the problem would end up being on my side, I’d have to pay for it. As I was sure about what I was doing, the next morning I had a competent technician in my apartment who within 20 minutes total identified the issue and fixed it (broken fiber in the distribution center). That is good support.

    I am willing to pay more to support init7, because they’re doing great work.

    But yes, we have lots of low cost options. For example, I pay 23 bucks a month with yallo for unlimited 5g data, calls and SMS across the whole of Europe.

    This is confidently wrong.

    3^0 is also 1. 2738394728^0 is also 1.

    Edit: just saw that technically you’re correct - sure.

    IF base 2, Exponent reduction equals to halving - dividing by 2.

    For x^y reducing y by one is equal to dividing by x, then we have the proof it always works.
